Sao Paulo: We Want Adriano


‘The Emperor’ is currently training with the 1993 Intercontinental Cup winners, while he undergoes clinical treatment for depression.

He is due to return to Italy in January, however Sao Paulo would like the forward to stay with them longer so that he can spearhead their quest for Copa Libertadores glory.

“We would like to keep hold of Adriano so he can continue his recovery in Brazil,” Lopes admitted on Radio Bandeirantes.

“We did the same with Ricardo Oliveira and he returned to shine in Europe. Adriano is happy with the work and he is getting on well with everyone here.

“However, we have an agreement with Inter that he will return to them in January and for the moment we won’t be making any offers as it isn’t ethical.”

Adriano has had a spectacular fall from grace in the past 18 months and has been a shadow of the once great player ever since his father sadly died.
